Abstract: L'invention se fonde sur un boîtier de machine comportant un logement de palier dont le siège du palier est raccordé à une paroi du boîtier de la machine par l'intermédiaire d'une paroi de logement de palier, munie de nervures (42,43) et est sollicité par des forces (11,44) s'exerçant dans le sens axial et radial. Il est prévu que la paroi du logement de palier présente au moins une nervure périphérique (42) annulaire entourant au moins en partie le siège du palier, dans une zone dont l'inclinaison (α) par rapport à son état initial se serait considérablement modifiée sous l'effet de la sollicitation (11), sans la présence de la nervure périphérique (42). Il est également prévu que de nombreuses autres nervures (43) s'étendent transversalement à la nervure périphérique (42). Ce système permet de parvenir à une bonne résistance de forme en utilisant relativement peu de matériau. Un basculement du siège de palier et du palier en soi n'est aussi fondamental que dans des structures traditionnelles de logement de palier. Dans le cas de boîtiers cupuliformes, la paroi du logement de palier conserve une courbe plus marquée dans la zone la plus sollicitée (21) qu'au niveau de la zone située diamétralement opposée à l'axe du palier (4).

Abstract: Packet call processing involving packet-based data transfers in a mobile communications system can handle a packet call if the mobile station has the ability to accommodate the packet call even when packet call collision occurs. Upon detecting a packet call collision between a first received packet call and a second received packet call, the mobile station determines whether a Network Service Access Point Identifier (NSAPI) is available and can be allocated to handle the second received packet call. Thus, an increased number of packet calls can be processed simultaneously by the network and/or the mobile station so that Internet-based applications, as well as other high-speed data applications can be handled more effectively and efficiently. Such packet call collision detection and NSAPI allocation techniques are applicable to various wireless and/or mobile communications environments, such as GPRS, UTMS, etc. involving data packet transmissions whereby packet call collisions may occur. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel disposable injection device which comprises a reservoir for injection media and an injection outlet provided on the reservoir which can be penetrated by one end of a hypodermic needle sharpened on both ends, said injection media being for example solutions or suspensions. The injection device should be manageable by untrained personnel without any problems and with one hand only. For this purpose, a needle retainer (7) comprising the hypodermic needle (11a) is provided under the bottom part (4) of the reservoir (1). A needle chamber (14a) with flexible lateral walls is linked with the bottom part (4) and/or with the needle retainer (7). A device for irreversibly fixing the hypodermic needle in the needle chamber once the injection device is actuated is disposed in the needle chamber (14a). Said fixing device substantially consists of a needle platform (17a) that interacts with an elastic element (12). Used injection devices of the above-described type do therefore not bear any risk of injury. Certain embodiments of the inventive device also facilitate injections at angles flatter than 90 DEG  with respect to the skin surface.
